Perceptions
The college one is not home for the holidays 24 hours when I overheard her say, "They moved the key so I was locked out of the house for one and a half hours."
What would you think if you heard that? Terrible parents. Leaving their poor daughter out in the cold. Rotten.
Really. This situation is a life lesson, and not the obvious life lesson on communicating where the key is, or isn't. It's a lesson on each situation has two sides. Yes the key has been removed. But also yes, the college one has a house key, but did not have it with her.
The glass is neither half full or half empty. It's just a glass containing a certain volume of water.
